Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Traditional gender schemas reinforce the idea that gender roles are fixed and should be strictly followed by individuals. As a result, parents with traditional gender schemas are likely to raise children who conform to gender roles prescribed for their sex, leading to gender typing. Androgyny refers to individuals who exhibit both traditionally masculine and feminine traits, which is less likely to be encouraged in traditional gender schemas. An intersex condition is a medical condition where an individual's reproductive or sexual anatomy doesn't fit typical male or female categories and is not related to parenting styles. There is no evidence suggesting that traditional gender schemas affect the onset of puberty.
